I’m about a month back into work, and I’m doing (surprisingly) great! Of course, if life were ideal and simple and I had the opportunity to stay home and cuddle my baby all day long, I would, but that’s not our reality and that’s ok. I really love my job, and it feels really good to […]

Our first ultrasound and realizing that there is, indeed, a baby growing in my belly.

Thoughts on getting through the hard times.
Sometimes, life is hard. Really, really hard. We get a bad diagnosis. The bills keep coming but the money doesn’t. The test is negative…again. We’re separated from those we love. We make a mistake that brings major consequences into our lives. Dreams and plans don’t seem to follow through. We have deep pain and sadness, […]
Feel how you want to feel.
Through reading and studying The Desire Map by Danielle LaPorte, I’m learning that happiness, joy, and contentment come from feeling how you want to feel more often than not. How do you want to feel in life? What are you doing everyday to help you feel that way more? Or perhaps, constantly? Here’s Danielle: I’ve […]
